      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sensata Technologies (Attleboro, MA) in Nov 2019

      Interview

      Phone screening, then phone interview with an engineer, which was mostly about teamwork skills and to describe myself and my goals. Then they invited me onsite for a site tour (with other candidates) and a several-hour long interview process with four employees. The questions ranged all over, from solving simple mechanics puzzles to describing my teamwork skills, project skills, and what some of my most intense analyses have been in the past. At one point, they asked me to draw a free-body-diagram. It all well went well in my opinion, I answered every question in detail and in a way that demonstrated my strengths. However, I was aware that another candidate was equally skilled and had a higher education than me. I was fine with the fact that I was truly bested for the job, but I was shocked by the fact that they completely ghosted me after the interview day. No emails, no responses, no rejections.

      Interview questions [4]

      Question 1

      “Do you see any issues with the design of this diagram, as I show it to you? The device measures pressure.”

      Interview

      The interview process was pretty standard. Started wiht a phone screen with HR, then an over the phone interview with hiring manager a few days later, then on-site interviews (3 technical, 1 HR). Total process took about 1 month from start to finish.
